Meet the man making drinks from wonky fruit
Every year, a third of the world's food is wasted - that's about 1.3 billion tonnes. In the UK alone, we chuck away over 10 million tonnes a year. And some of it is perfectly good - irregular shaped fruit is rejected by food and drink providers because it doesn't look nice. One company's putting those rejects to good use: Georgie was joined by Maciej Kacprzyk, co-founder of Wonky Drinks.

Steve Bohme, from Nielsen Book Research UK, did the research, and spoke to Share Radio's James Brydges

Support for Scottish Independence is as strong as ever
To go through all the political headlines this morning, Georgie Frost was joined Billy Bambrough, Editor of Verdict.co.uk. A survey shows support for Scottish independence is at its highest ever. The ScotCen research group says 46 percent of the Scottish public want a split from the UK - that's a record level for the annual poll. But the Scottish Social Attitudes survey also suggested the popularity of the European Union has fallen.

UK construction industry could lose 200,000 EU workers if Britain leaves single market
The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) says the UK construction industry could lose almost 200,000 EU workers if Britain leaves the single market. It argues that alternative plans need to be put in place in the event of a hard Brexit, otherwise some of the country's biggest infrastructure and construction projects could be put under threat. Abdul Choudhury, RICS Policy Manager for London, joined Nigel Cassidy on Share Radio Breakfast to discuss this.
