This incident is obviously having a serious impact on roads leading into Bradford city centre. It’s taken me an hour to reach Bradford Coroner’s Court from Rooley Lane. Avoid if you can.

It’s going to be a very important moment on Friday when MPs vote on assisted dying. I’ll be in to cover it live & for evening news bulletins. Public opinion points to support, but very unclear at the moment how vote will go on Friday with deeply held views on both sides of the debate
