In today's special, we've teamed up with the Shrimpers Trust to bring you an election special. In this 'digital hustings' we put your questions to the parliamentary candidates vying for your vote, as they talk through how they will prioritise the safety of Southend United and football clubs across the country if they win a seat. We also sit down with Liam Ager of the Trust for all the latest developments related to the COSU takeover.
Special thanks to candidates Anna Firth, David Burton-Sampson, Bayo Alaba and Simon Cross, and the Shrimpers Trust.
