Arab voices in Glasgow
Day three of our tour of the UK, and tonight we will be broadcasting live from Glasgow.
The owners of the Shallal Lebanese restaurant in Glasgow have kindly allowed us to set up shop there as we ask Glasgows Arab community what they want to talk about.
David, Richard, Fiona and Anu are all out there currently on this whistle stop tour and last I heard they were tucking in to a hearty lunch!
As we've been doing throughout the week, we've been asking you to send us questions you want to ask our invited audience.
David in Switzerland has emailed to ask:
It seems to me that there's a lot of trouble in the Middle East as a result of religious in-fighting. Can you see a time when secularism is implemented in the region?
Sanjay in the UK wants to ask:
Which event damaged the reputation of the Muslim community more, the events of 7th July or the actions of the Muslim world in response to the publishing of the Danish cartoons?
And John also in the UK wants to know:
How do Arabs view themselves? Are you an Arab first, second or only? And secondly how important is religion to the every day person in the Middle East?
It's not too late to get your questions in to our audience, send us an email and we'll do our best to get our audience to answer your questions.
And of course we can't ignore the latest developments in the Middle East. You can keep up to date with all the latest developments at the .
Tonight we hope to have people in Lebanon who have been forced to leave their homes for their own safety talking to our audience in Glasgow. We also want to haer from as many different Arab communities around the world on how they view the situation.
