Breastfeeding, school cuts, and Metrobus




Inside Bristol Live show

Summary: In this week's episode of the Bristol Live podcast, we speak to reporter and mum Emma Grimshaw about her experience of breastfeeding.  Emma speaks to our reporter Alex Wood who has taken over interviewing duties to hear about life as a mum in Bristol. Then regular host Alex Ballinger returns to hear from education reporter Michael Yong who has been covering a landmark court case. Michael has been reporting on a campaign against funding cuts that threaten to have a huge impact on the lives of children with special needs in Bristol and across the country.  The story has made national headlines and Michael talks about his experience covering such an important story. And finally on this week's episode of Inside Bristol Live we hear from a tag team of reporters, Tristan Court and political editor Esme Ashcroft.   Both Esme and Tristan have been following the development of the highly anticipated but often controversial Metrobus transport scheme.   The long-running Metrobus saga will be familiar to many but Tristan and Esme take us behind the scenes to look a little deeper.
