Dr Milton Brown, host of this special podcast edition of Public Eye, took to the bustling market to engage with Kirklees residents, capturing a spectrum of perspectives on the media’s portrayal of this critical election.

In this special report, Public Eye delves into the diverse opinions and sentiments of Huddersfield’s inhabitants, who represent a rich tapestry of cultural backgrounds, social classes, and ethnicities.

Residents shared a wide range of thoughts. Some voiced concerns about media bias and the lack of coverage on topics crucial to their communities.
