Labour MP Wes Streeting has spoken to Iain Dale, after his recovery from kidney cancer.

The Shadow Child Poverty Secretary earlier this year announced being "cancer free" following an operation to remove a kidney.

He was diagnosed with kidney cancer in April.

The Labour MP told Iain about the moment he was diagnosed with cancer and the way he responded to the news.

He also said hat when his diagnosis went public he received "a total outpouring of love and support from across the political spectrum, from friends and foes alike".
