Does British politics need more 'normal people?' As campaigning begins for the Makerfield by-election, Ian Collins examines the state of UK politics, the public mood, and whether Westminster is becoming increasingly disconnected from voters.
He's joined by broadcaster and journalist Michael Crick to analyse the situation so far, following some of the candidates appearing on Question Time.
Meanwhile, the White House has waded in on the case of Henry Nowak, calling on the UK to address concerns around two-tier policing. Spokesman for Republican Overseas UK, Erol Morkoç, discusses what the intervention could mean for US-UK relations.
Plus, to mark National Fish and Chip Day, Ian speaks to Gary Lewis, president of the National Edible Oil Distributors’ Association, about the nation's favourite dish.
