Paris is under siege. And this time, it's the farmers. But why?
After weeks of tractors on the straße in Germany, France are hit by similar trouble. It's causing great consternation for an increasingly weak French president Emmanuel Macron.

Later, we talk to the Conservative mayor of West Midlands, Andy Street.
