MEMBERS of the public will have the chance to quiz their MP on Friday.

South Lakes MP Tim Farron will be holding an online question and answer for constituents in Westmorland and Lonsdale from 7pm.

“In more normal times I regularly hold open public meetings in town halls and village halls across the South Lakes to give local residents the chance to ask questions and put their thoughts to me," he said.

“On Friday, given social distancing, I’m taking these meetings online with a ‘Virtual Town Hall’ question and answer session.

“It’s a difficult time for many of us at the moment, with all the uncertainty brought by the epidemic. You might have questions or concerns about Coronavirus, or about anything else for that matter."
