Trouble in Countesthorpe, Fracking & Ecotricity

Start your day with the latest news and updates, with Jim and Jo at breakfast.

There's been a massive rise in the number of reports of anti-social behaviour in a part of rural Leicestershire. Together with the Police, Blaby District Council says that between 2014 and 2015, it received 110 complaints in Countesthorpe.
