Batley and Spen will have a new MP this summer. People have just days to go to declare an interest in standing in the Batley and Spen By-Election. It’s after Tracy Brabin stood down after being elected as the new Mayor for West Yorkshire. Aisha and James profile the area – what are the challenges facing the candidates? And Tim talks about the Yorkshire MPs who are preparing to rebel against the government over foreign aid cuts. We hear from one charity in Yorkshire supporting those overseas.
