The North Poll podcast episode eight: On the buses with Lisa Nandy

In a special edition of The North Poll - the political podcast from the North, about the North - Jennifer Williams hops aboard the No 3 bus with Lisa Nandy.

The Wigan MP gives the M.E.N’s political editor a guided tour of her constituency, discussing the Westminster-Wigan divide - and how the town feels alienated from Manchester.

As they travel across Wigan in the last days before Christmas, the Labour MP dissects the general election result, and what she heard on the doorstep.

Nandy, who is considering a run in the leadership contest, talks about the anger towards the party, where it went wrong in the election, and what the future holds for Labour.
