Local cash crisis

Labour MP and chair of the Levelling Up, Housing and Communities Committee Clive Betts, and leader of Milton Keynes Council Pete Marland, join PoliticsHome's Alain Tolhurst and Caitlin Doherty to discuss the crisis in local government finance after a number of authorities filed for bankruptcy last year, with dozens more town halls warning about damaging budget shortfalls this year as spiralling costs for social care put other services at risk.
